Too Much Work to Do? Have Your Digital Twin Handle It by Joann S. Lublin

Ever wish you had a twin to share your workload? A small but growing number of executives have done just that, creating AI versions of themselves that offer a glimpse of future workplaces where one person’s output is no longer limited to one person. Here is how it works: An AI system analyzes how an executive writes, speaks and thinks, by studying everything from work emails the person has written to his or her speeches and interviews. Then, the AI double takes on various jobs for the executive—like answering questions from subordinates—that use the human’s knowledge and communication style. Sometimes, with a video-based version, these AI twins even speak at conferences or make presentations. Advocates and users say the digital twins have the potential to free executives from routine tasks and leave them available for higher-level work. Digital work twins could become the most significant productivity multiplier since the personal computer. Employ an AI Twin to Handle Your Piles of Busy Work – WSJ
